Reinstalling zonealarm free edition

Hi,

Here is my problem. I have no idea idea how it happened, but my zonealarm free edition has been uninstalled and I didn't do it! There's also Norton Internet security to which the same thing happened. now I'm trying to reinstall zonealarm, it stops @ 7%. I get this message :&quot;The file C:\Windows\system32\file name\vsmon.exe could not be found&quot;
I removed every file of zonealarm and every key from the registry, SOL!! Any help will be appreciated.

Hi Fax,

Thanks for you message. Booting my computer in safe mode, that I didn't do. The problem is that I do not have Zoenalarm installed. It has been uninstalled &quot;by itself&quot;. I didn't uninstall it. Thanks for the tip. I'll give it another try.

Hi!
not sure I understand, your restarted your system you pushed on F8 and then you get a black/white screen with various safe mode options, choose the first one -number 1- (boot in SAFE MODE)...

You can try also to boot in SAFE MODE via the MSCONFIG:

1) Close all open programs.
2) Click Start, Run and type MSCONFIG in the box and click OK
3) The System Configuration Utility appears, On the BOOT.INI tab, Check the "/SAFEBOOT" option, and then click OK and 4) Restart your computer when prompted.
5) The computer restarts in Safe mode.
6) Perform the troubleshooting steps for which you are using Safe Mode.
7) When you are finished with troubleshooting in Safe mode, open MSCONFIG again, on the BOOT.INI tab, uncheck "/SAFEBOOT" and click OK to restart your computer

Hi Fax,

I just restarted my computer the way you said, i.e. from the MSCONFIG, but still come back to the startup mode options. Can't get it started in safe mode. After 10 seconds, it keeps restarting and coming back to that startup mode options.
